SUMMARY:Amplifying Community Voices to Transform Data Collection
DESCRIPTION:Register				\n							\n		Join Social Current and Strategic Industry Partner CCNY for an insightful session on how restorative practices can transform qualitative data collection\, fostering trust\, collaboration\, and meaningful community engagement.  \nIn this webinar\, you will hear from experts on how to amplify community voices\, strengthen relationships\, and empower participants to speak openly.   \nCCNY utilizes restorative practices and focus groups to better understand the challenges faced by organizations and communities. The underlying premise of restorative practices rests with the belief that people will make positive changes when those in positions of authority do things with them rather than to them or for them.  \nThe field of evaluation stands to benefit from considering the utilization of restorative practices within certain qualitative data collection opportunities because it further enhances participants’ abilities to be active listeners\, allows for self-expression\, fosters stronger relationships with one another\, and establishes high control and high support in participants\, leaving them empowered to respond to focus group questions openly.   \nThe approaches and tools shared in this session will allow your organization to move beyond traditional engagement methods while fostering relationships\, increasing social justice\, amplifying voices\, and creating lasting change.  \nTakeaways\n\nUnderstanding restorative practices \nHow to apply restorative practices in everyday work  \nHow to integrate restorative practices with focus group methodology \nLessons learned from challenges and setbacks \nAbility to incorporate tools into your continuous improvement practice  \n\nWho Should Participate\n\nBoard members and executive level staff (i.e.\, vice presidents\, chiefs\, etc.) \nDirector-level staff (i.e.\, program director\, etc.) \nManagement/supervisor level staff \nPerformance quality improvement staff \nProfessional/clinical services staff \n\n  \n	\n\n					\n\n										\n		\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n					\n\n									\n					\n						\n															\n													\n							\n								Elyse Fuerst\, LMSW\n								\n																	Evaluation Associate \nCCNY \n								\n																										Biography\n									\n										\n											\n												\n													\n														\n													\n												\n												\n													\n														\n															\n																\n	                              	\n																																					\n																																			\n																	\n																		\n																			Elyse Fuerst\, LMSW\n																																							Evaluation Associate \nCCNY \n																																						\n																				Elyse Fuerst\, evaluation associate\, has a master’s in social work from the University at Buffalo (UB).
